The element of game is there, like any other Mana series I've played. I just want to suggest to add controller support for Backbone controllers or any type of controller on this like Secret of Mana and Legend of Mana, as buttons are somehow narrow for a big hand like mine. The rest everything looks fine. I will change my rating to 5 once fixed.

Its a great game but the control like turning right to left and up and down its kinda off. It makes me dizzy like moving around its hard. Please update the game for smooth moving around control..

Great game but with some big issues. On Galaxy S24+, the red enemy attack indicators don't show (making it impossible to dodge many dangerous attacks) and loading screens are bugged. Lacks controller support. Moveable d-pad should be locked to left of screen and player should be able to move and resize action buttons (they're too close to the edge of screen, making it difficult to press). Platforming, playing melee, and dodging dangerous attacks are clunky. Game is also capped at 30 FPS.

Runs pretty smooth although the controls could use some work. I got what I paid for and honestly it's not a bad deal. 23 dollars for a fully functional rpg with 20+ hours of gameplay. 4.5 outta 5 for me but I rounded up.

Hi Square Enix team, huge fan of you games since Chrono Trigger on DS. I also love the mana series. The gameplay, in term of combat and exploration is great. Love the graphic. But if possible, please add a controller support for this game because playing on phone with a big thumb is not a very good experience, I kept pressing on the wrong button especially during combat. And I'm not sure if it is my device or what not, is this game lock on 30 fps. Waiting for your reply. Thx

No controller support( solved with screen mapper but still a pain) on screen controls can't be hidden(even if you select hide on screen controls option?!). That's it those are my only gripes but they're BIG gripes. I love the mana series and I think this and the og have their own place, as a matter of fact I think the og is my favorite of the 2 but I love em both.

Not bad, not great. Middle of the road experience. Worth 22$? You can spend 22$ in worse ways. Just needed more time or a better vision for its content, let's be honest, it was probably money and time that kneecapped the games quality. Oh well, it's a real shame it isn't better when it could have been with just a bit more effort.

I still stand on my opinion that this is the best gaming remake of Seiken Densetsu 3 I've ever played but to be fair it does put it's told on android without controller support often times it gets stiff when the analog icon is too near the edge of the screen that it makes the game impossible to dodge certain enemy attacks & when your thumb starts feeling the slips on screen that you begin to lose balance it makes you wanna consider not continuing on without a Bluetooth Moga Controller.

A great remake! Though I have not played the original game. Here are reasons why It's not 5 stars. 1.) There is no controller support. It's hard to navigate with just the touch screen option especially during battles. 2.) The graphics are good but an Ultra settings option would be better. My S23 Ultra is not even breaking a sweat😅. 3.) Camera sometimes block your view during battles or just simply roaming around. Overall it's a good android game. I'm on my 2nd playthrough. The new game+ is 🔥

The idea of having the characters chosen at the beginning shape the story was intriguing. By the time I was through with 1 round of the core story I couldn't push myself through it 2 more times to play what amounts to around 70% of the game again with some minor story changes until the endings. I understand that this is just a port of a remake of an old game, but the lack of variety in the stories and complete lack of side quests to flesh out the world killed it for me. It was fun for a while.
